take a bow asked:
does the bank only loan you the amount of money equal to the equity in your home? Or do they go above the home’s value?

The credit market has drastically changed when it comes to borrowing against your house.
Odds are strong that unless you make a lot of money, or have really good credit ratings, that most legitimate banks will not loan you above 80% of market value in total (primary mortgage plus equity loan).
If the company is willing to loan you more than 80% of the value of your home, be careful. There are thousands of people losing their homes because they took adjustable rate equity loans and when the interest rate went up they couldn’t refinance nor pay it.
It would **** to lose your house for an equity loan.
Good luck to you.
